Yeah I know I'll get made fun of for this. It's supposed to be naked why do you want a wind shield.

Have any of you found a small wind shield that takes advantage of the 04 S3 quasi-fairing. I was trying to improvise a little lip just to get the wind up near my head and face instaed of hitting me in the chest and the neck.

I'm talking like 4-6 inches not a two foot windshield.

0-80 is a blast but then I have to slow down because I feel like I'm being pulled off the back. I have to concentrate more to hold on through a turn than on my line.

Any advice??? Check out the moto guzzi V11-I'm not sure which- it has a fairing like the triple with a little clear wind shield coming out of the top.

Thanks- I didn't just embarrass myself did I? :evil:

I think that laminarlip will work. I took mine up to 100 on the back stretch to Borrego Springs yesterday..and I had to tuck, because staying upright...was just too much work!!

Laminar lip makes one (www.laminarlip.com).

Sky King Products makes an anodized micro-fairing (www.skykingproducts.com)

Jack Lilley (UK) makes a "touring" windscreen (www.jacklilley.com)

Laminar lip works well. Good product too, but I've removed mine as, at 6'2" it created turbulence around my head.
